services for Fire Station No. 4 would be contracted separately by the City utilizing on-call
design firms.
On October 31, 2016, staff solicited a request for proposals to all qualified city on-call
design firms. The first order of work (Phase 1) is to document the existing conditions at
Fire Station No. 4. The scope of work detailed for Phase 1 includes the following:
Phase 1 - Existing Conditions
• On-site/off-site topography (ground survey)
• On-site wet and dry utilities location and documentation
• Off-site wet utilities (water, sewer & storm drain) location and documentation
• Off-site dry utilities (electrical, cable, data, & gas) location and documentation
The second order of work (Phase 2) is to develop design reports and construction
drawings for the estimated 2,600 square foot addition and retrofit of the existing Fire
Station No. 4 building. The scope of work identified for Phase 2 includes the following:
Phase 2 - Design & Construction Documents
• Hydrology study
• Geotechnical report
• Preliminary grading plan
• Site and utility demolition/connection plan
• Precise grading and paving plan (includes on-site drainage details and sewer,
water, and fire service line connections)
• Opinion of Probable Construction Costs
In mid-December 2016, the City Manager authorized Willdan Engineering, in accordance
with their on-call agreement (A6688), to proceed with Phase 1 topographic survey, utility
research and coordination, and base map preparation at a cost not to exceed of $8,240.
Accordingly, Purchase Order 17-0728 was issued to Willdan Engineering associated with
this assignment.
At this time, the scope of work assigned in Phase 1 is complete. Staff recommends the
City Council authorize an increase in the amount of $26,422 for a revised total contract
amount of $34,662 with Willdan Engineering to proceed with Phase 2 design reports and
construction drawings for Fire Station No. 4. A copy of Willdan Engineering proposal is
included as Attachment 1.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
Section 21084 of the California Public Resources Code requires Guidelines for
Implementation of the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA"). The Guidelines are
required to include a list of classes of projects which have been determined not to have a
significant effect on the environment and which are exempt from the provisions of CEQA.
In response to that mandate, the Secretary for Resources identified classes of projects

that do not have a significant effect on the environment, and are declared to be
categorically exempt from the requirement for the preparation of environmental
documents. In accordance with Section 15301 "Existing Facilities," Class 1 projects
consist of interior or exterior alterations involving such things as interior partitions,
plumbing, and electrical conveyances; therefore, the Fire Station No. 4 Rehabilitation,
City Project No. 15-25, is considered categorically exempt from CEQA, and a Notice of
Exemption has been prepared and filed with the Riverside County Clerk.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Sufficient funds are budgeted and available in the General Fund (Capital Projects)
Account No. 261-3600-59483 to facilitate approval of this purchase order increase in the
amount of $26,422 with Wilidan Engineering for Fire Station No. 4.

Subject: Proposal for Civil Engineering Services for CP15-25 Fire Station #4
Rehabilitation
Dear Mr, Laurie:
Willdan Engineering(Willdan)appreciates this opportunity to present our proposal to provide civil
engineering services for the CP15-25 Fire Station 94 Rehabilitation project. Willdan is well
qualified to provide these services. Willdan has built our reputation around providing quality full-
service engineering services to public agencies for more than 50 years.
General Description
Willdan proposes to provide professional civil engineering services required for the design of this
project. Willdan will provide the professional services necessary to produce the design materials,
construction documents, and management systems to successfully construct the project. A detailed
breakdown of our proposed services is included herein.
